Review: Spider-Noir recaptures the magic of a bygone era

Forty-one years ago, the late singer, songwriter, and education activist Whitney Houston urged us to teach children and let them lead the way. Decades later, some believe that this means instructing kids to use scissors as forks; teaching them that zookeepers can sweep under water; and leading them to believe that magical, mystical, rainbow-hunting unicorns [โฆ]
The convenience of contactless payments can already feel magical, but Cash App is really leaning into that with its latest accessory. The mobile payment service is launching the Cash App Wand: an NFC-enabled, iridescent, star-topped wand that allows users to make on-the-go payments without pulling out their phone or card. This plays on a popular [โฆ]
You can tap the star-shaped, NFC-enabled wand at terminals to make contactless payments. It's the first of several tap-to-pay hardware doodads coming from Cash App.
Nubia has announced the international launch of the Redmagic 11S Pro, its new flagship Android gaming phone. It's not a significant change from the 11 Pro, which launched internationally last November, but has been upgraded to the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Leading Version. Otherwise things look similar. There's a large 7,500mAh battery, fast [โฆ]
I first met Robert Woo in 2011, during his third time walking in a powered exoskeleton. The architect had been paralyzed in a construction accident four years earlier, but he was determined to get back on his feet. Watching him clunk across a rehab room in an exoskeleton prototype, the technology felt astonishing. I had the same reaction when reporting on early brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), which enabled paralyzed people to move robotic arms or communicate by thought alone. Both types of bionic technology seemed to verge on magic. But that initial sense of awe, Iโve learned over many years of reporting on these technologies, is only a starting point. What matters is not what these systems can do in a carefully staged demo but how they perform in the real world. Do they work reliably? Can people with disabilities use them for their intended purposes? And what does it actually costโin time, effort, and trade-offsโto do so? The question isnโt whether the technology looks impressive the first time but whether it holds up on the hundredth. The special report in this issue, โCyborg Tech From the Insideโ takes that perspective seriously. In my feature article on Woo, an exoskeleton super-user who has spent 15 years testing these systems, the story of the technology is inseparable from the story of its use. Wooโs relentless feedback has driven steady, incremental improvements. In Edd Gentโs reporting on the pioneers testing the earliest BCIs, the experience of these extraordinary technologies likewise resolves into something more complex. As one trial participant notes, these early adopters are like the first astronauts, who barely reached space before coming back down to Earth. Together, these stories reframe these individuals not as passive medical patients but as the ultimate beta testers and co-engineers of the bionic age. I saw the gap between demonstration and daily use firsthand when I interviewed Woo in a Manhattan showroom recently, where he was testing a new self-balancing exoskeleton from Wandercraft. The device is a striking advance that kept him upright without crutches, but it also revealed the friction of the real world. As Woo tried to walk out the door, barely an inch of slope on the Park Avenue sidewalk was enough to trigger the machineโs safety sensors and halt his progress. It was a stark reminder of how far these systems must evolve before they fit seamlessly into everyday life. For the people who use them, that seamless integration is the ultimate goal. Getting there will depend not just on technical breakthroughs but on how well these systems hold up outside controlled environments, over time, and under real conditions. Looking from the inside doesnโt make these technologies any less remarkable, but it does change how we judge themโnot by what they can do once for a photo but by what they can sustain over a lifetime. Thatโs the standard their users have been applying all along. Our commitment to evaluating technology from the userโs perspective extends beyond this special report. To provide a necessary corrective to the โtechno-solutionismโ that often dominates coverage of assistive devices, IEEE Spectrum created the Taenzer Fellowship for Disability-Engaged Journalism, under which six writers with disabilities are contributing articles about the devices they rely on daily. As Special Projects Director Stephen Cass notes, these journalists โarenโt afraid to ask clear-eyed questions about the tech and are deeply aware of how it impacts humans.โ You can read the fellowsโ work at spectrum.ieee.org/tag/taenzer-fellowship.
